Podaveina seshagiri boyanayudu

Pallavii:       Podaveina Seshagiri Boyanayudu, viduvakindari gache  Veda Boyanayudu.

" Boyanayudu" is a sect, living in and around Seshardi hill. Seshadri" is one of the Seven hills, which are totally  under Lord Sree Venkatesa's "Power Spell."  On Seshdri hill, Lord presents himself as 
Boyanayudu. 

Charanam1:         Polaci meesala pedda Boyanayudu, maligi veepunagatte  manku boyanayudu
                             Polamu rajei thirige  Boyanayudu, velaya motunanunde Veta Boyanayudu

In this charanam, Annamayya is referring to the  different incarnations of  The Seshgiri Boyanayudu .
With flakes and fins in Mathsyavatar,;
 with earth on back, in Koormavatar,; as the king of the  land , in Varahavatar,;  as a wild, ferocious
 Lion, in Nrusimhavatar, the Seshagiri Boyanayudu has incarnated.

Charanam2:       Potti potti adugula Boyanayudu, puttu paga sadhinche, Boyanayudu.
                           Bottula Mekamunese Boyanayudu, Pattapu nemali chungu balu Boyanayudu.

Seshagiri Boyanayudu was short in Vamanavatar, with short feet,;
Took revenge on Kshatriyas  in ParasuRamavatar,; killed the dot-skin deer in Ramavatar,; decked with a peacock frill, in Sri Krishnavatar.  

Charanam3:        Ponchi siggeggeragani   Boyanayudu ,minchi ralameeda dataee, mendu  Boyanayadu.

                             Anchala sri Venkatesudane Boyanayudu, pancha  kalavelamula. Bali Boyanayudu. 

Seshagiri Boyanayudu , as Buddha, in Buddhavatar, preached, equality in the society .

In Kalikavatar, riding over huge hills.,on horse.,establishes dharma. This Seshagiri Boyanayudu is,

None else than Venkatesa, the Lord of Kaliyuga.

In this song, Annamayya praises the ten incarnations of the Almighty,.    Speciality of the song is, in each 

line, one Avatar is described. What a great poet he was?!!. With a very few  words , he wrapped up each avatar.

It is the same Seshagiri Boyanayudu , on Venkatadri hill ,named ,and  called as Venkatesudu.
" Lord Venkatesa is very tall; "says, Annamayya, in many of his sankeertanas.                      
This song is a Hallmark of his prowess in Telugu Literature.  That is why, he was called, "Pada kavitha pithamaha."  With ten simple words, ten Avatars are explained.

Matsya, Koorma, Varaha, Nrusimha, vamana, Parasurama, Rama, Krishna, Buddha,and Kalkii , all ten Avatars are described in single  song. That's the Beauty of this sankeerthana.
